For the past two years I have had the same costumer come to me for that special Christmas gift, this year was no different, and what did they want this year? The incredibly complicated to get exotic pulse rifle, the Outbreak Prime.<br /><br />At the time of the request the first Destiny group had literally just got their hands on it they had published the videos and pics only two days before. Bungie hadn't even released it publicly on Bungie.com, so trying to get my hand on refrence images was not easy. I started out going of of the concept art and the YouTube videos to begin with. Once I had collected what images I could get my hands on I ran over to destinystlgenerator to see if I could get lucky and get the game model as a starting point. Alas it was so "new" with the Rise of Iron expansion that the guy that runs it hadn't gotten to it yet. I was in a bit of a pinch because the commission was for a hard resin model and while I could scratch build it I wanted to have an accurate to the game model to mold and cast. At this point all I had to go on was the few pictures that I had scrapped together and that wasn't enough reference to get it as accurate as I could. So, as a "here's hoping" I sent an email to the guy that runs the DestinySTLgenerator hoping I might be able to get in contact with him. The first email I didn't get a response, I let it sit for about a week, I understand this is a side thing for him and he does it for no profit for the love of it so I didn't want to sound like the pushy "hey do this for me because I'm special" I'm sure he has tons of requests all the time for X, Y, and Z models. I was loosing time on this build, I only had about a month and a half to make a master, get it perfect, mold it, cast it, assemble, and finish it. Then I had to send it out in enough time that it would make it to my customer in Japan by Christmas. Doable, but I had no time to waste, I sent another email offering to pay him if he could get the model for me, I was hoping adding a little incentive to the deal might peak his interest in helping me out. About 4 days later as I was about to head to bed I got a very nice surprise in my inbox. An email from the guy saying very nicely that he had uploaded it for me and that he does this for the love of the game not for profit so don't worry about paying him. I was so excited that he had heard my request that I ran over to the site grabbed the model and promptly donated to his site, his site has helped me on so many occasions that it was the least I could do.<br /><br />With the base digital model acquired, the pieces loaded up, and my reference photos I started working on the digital model. There was a lot of work to be done given how intricate the model it's self is then on top of that converting digital "no physics" model into a real world object that had supports and would fit together. It took a bit to figure out how to make this thing work in the real world. After about a week, I could finally start 3D printing some of the parts, I hadn't finished the entire model but I needed to get things started or the deadline wasn't going to be met. I got the Jarvises Printing away while I finished up the digital work. Here's some pictures of&nbsp; finished digital model.<br /><br />While I continued printing out the pieces I was missing I started getting to work on the assembly and finishing of the pieces I did have. As always, the smoothing and finishing took forever, sanding is probably my least favorite part of prop making, it's just so tedious. Here are a few pictures of the pieces in the finishing process.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h1z6jH2Fmwk/WMF-19XElnI/AAAAAAAABpA/XTTsiD5wYfEL7eex77ppLgPC-RXtoPW5wCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h1z6jH2Fmwk/WMF-19XElnI/AAAAAAAABpA/XTTsiD5wYfEL7eex77ppLgPC-RXtoPW5wCK4B/s400/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP01.jpg" width="225" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dj7q-MYJZPU/WMF-14BRNQI/AAAAAAAABpI/TpBSNflprsEgShz3CAEl_Uui27fIu5e_wCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dj7q-MYJZPU/WMF-14BRNQI/AAAAAAAABpI/TpBSNflprsEgShz3CAEl_Uui27fIu5e_wCK4B/s400/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP02.jpg" width="225" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dFqkLdj3GGs/WMF-1r7rwkI/AAAAAAAABow/BlzI5vl8G2sAPcIC2ndAY-0F7H0om7R6wCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="208" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dFqkLdj3GGs/WMF-1r7rwkI/AAAAAAAABow/BlzI5vl8G2sAPcIC2ndAY-0F7H0om7R6wCK4B/s640/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP04.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />Once I had gotten some of the main pieces finished I had to start making sure that it was all going to fit together nicely. If it didn't fit well now than the pieces cast from a mold would need work to make fit and I have learned that this is probably one of the worst outcomes you can have from molding something you intend to cast. All the money that goes into the finishing and molding of a piece just to have to do a ton of work post casting, not fun. Here are a few pictures of the "finished" master. <br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xubLmX0VLLU/WMF_GNhcVvI/AAAAAAAABpo/h9q991yb23I63WuoMFHn4L6b8Cfc72F_ACK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xubLmX0VLLU/WMF_GNhcVvI/AAAAAAAABpo/h9q991yb23I63WuoMFHn4L6b8Cfc72F_ACK4B/s640/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP05.jpg" width="640" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s5jqP3FKsTk/WMF_GF81_8I/AAAAAAAABpQ/TQU07bbxjw0Qs8daePBaJHCE9ubCh2EgQCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s5jqP3FKsTk/WMF_GF81_8I/AAAAAAAABpQ/TQU07bbxjw0Qs8daePBaJHCE9ubCh2EgQCK4B/s400/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP06.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Asq_uBZ5cKk/WMF_GHZFhGI/AAAAAAAABpc/gBLBKZnuzWA_c-Mp3v-Iney-dbKs-2NBwCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP08.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Asq_uBZ5cKk/WMF_GHZFhGI/AAAAAAAABpc/gBLBKZnuzWA_c-Mp3v-Iney-dbKs-2NBwCK4B/s640/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP08.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />Then the molding process which I have gotten much faster at over these years but still takes more time than I like to spend on it.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m1QqZnIaYnw/WMF_4bDvdTI/AAAAAAAABpw/C9iBvuOI6G4qC20-vwhVRM0RJWPR_GywACK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP09.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m1QqZnIaYnw/WMF_4bDvdTI/AAAAAAAABpw/C9iBvuOI6G4qC20-vwhVRM0RJWPR_GywACK4B/s320/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP09.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KQ1YmqYat4Q/WMF_4YVWsZI/AAAAAAAABp4/UnIwuV4WgoY0zAqYrRtE6J-1D5jHK3C4wCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP12.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KQ1YmqYat4Q/WMF_4YVWsZI/AAAAAAAABp4/UnIwuV4WgoY0zAqYrRtE6J-1D5jHK3C4wCK4B/s320/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP12.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />Once I got the mold finished and cleaned up I started casting immediately given I was down to about a week to meet the deadline of getting in a box and sent out to Japan. Luckily taking that little extra time on the master paid off in the cast parts.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cGIJZCno8k4/WMGAHG3mWgI/AAAAAAAABqA/qN5rkoy4RpE0PKcLYni1PeyGDw6YxUDFwCK4B/s1600/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP14.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cGIJZCno8k4/WMGAHG3mWgI/AAAAAAAABqA/qN5rkoy4RpE0PKcLYni1PeyGDw6YxUDFwCK4B/s320/Outbreak%2BPrime%2BProp%2BGun%2BDestiny%2BRoI%2BExotic%2BPulse%2BRifle%2Bfor%2Bsale%2BWIP14.jpg" width="180" /></a><br />At this point I had literally about 48 hours to finish it and get it packed up. Not to mention that I had to lay nearly 50ft of actual red wire to finish the look of the original. Now I had thought no problem everything fits a little bit of clean up and it would be a cake walk to glue everything together. I was very wrong, I had made a fatal mistake that was causing all of the glue to pop at the slightest tweak. I would glue something and 2-5 minutes later it would pop off. After a lot of cursing and struggling to get things to work, my lovely girl came out into the shop sat down and after listening to me vent about how nothing was working, promptly told me I was being dumb about this and that I needed to think it out rather than fight it over and over again, this was the point that I realized my horrible mistake. I made a fatal mistake in my assembly, in an effort to save myself some time I had thought it would be a good idea, at the time, to pre-paint my pieces before assembling them. Horrible idea, while the logistics of having things painted before assembling seemed like a time saver in truth it easily tripled my assembly time. The main problem being that since the pieces were painted the glue to assemble the parts wasn't sticking to the model rather the paint that was coating the model, so I would glue something think it was nicely attached and not even 5 minutes later the bond would pop pulling up the paint it had been attached to. After realizing this fact I spent all night, the night before I had to send it, fixing this mistake. It took me till 2 in the morning to get it assembled and fix the paint issues but I finally managed to get it finished. After all the issues I had with it I have to say I was very happy how it turned out. The next morning before I had to pack it up and send it out I managed to get some great shots of it. Here is the final finished exotic pulse rifle, the Outbreak Prime<br /><a

Project: Queen's wrath PinOne thing I haven't seen a lot of in the Destiny community is love for the Queen's Wrath. Don't get me wrong I know it was a big thing for a fleeting moment but after the House of Wolves expansion lost it's luster the Queen's Wrath fell by the way side. I decided I wanted to honor it a bit and make a pin for it to ride along side the other faction pins. The casting on this one is a bit tricky given the brass and silver in the logo but I managed to get it to work. I was a little disappointed with the chips on 2 of the points but quickly realized I actually liked it, it gave it more of the 'well loved' feel to it.<br /><br />Take a look and let me know what you think.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-78XVvjPbpPg/WPZ9NYHh_QI/AAAAAAAACQQ/R61jWC5AGT4P_3EdJtkrcyUnMacYcmoSQCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-78XVvjPbpPg/WPZ9NYHh_QI/AAAAAAAACQQ/R61jWC5AGT4P_3EdJtkrcyUnMacYcmoSQCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="304" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2besCOGIcn8/WPZ9NWd1WQI/AAAAAAAACQ0/15unpl8tmSMEpiEMZLnnB6Dmz6l3R2NRACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2besCOGIcn8/WPZ9NWd1WQI/AAAAAAAACQ0/15unpl8tmSMEpiEMZLnnB6Dmz6l3R2NRACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="298" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gvJjVMDaA8g/WPZ9NeWuO7I/AAAAAAAACQY/saSNCFJhRUYRW0lCYq0pLEQxoRb05Vq9QCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="318" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gvJjVMDaA8g/WPZ9NeWuO7I/AAAAAAAACQY/saSNCFJhRUYRW0lCYq0pLEQxoRb05Vq9QCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale04.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LnH1msN6d7Y/WPZ9Nd5-wjI/AAAAAAAACQ4/I9bYKe8QoTcCNkB2Mh2k6R2_vGmP6_i5wCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LnH1msN6d7Y/WPZ9Nd5-wjI/AAAAAAAACQ4/I9bYKe8QoTcCNkB2Mh2k6R2_vGmP6_i5wCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KW-BzWHcxdk/WPZ9NQss1UI/AAAAAAAACQo/T_ITXNOKLLwemcuvciT3F1xsVmJshpwfwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale07.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KW-BzWHcxdk/WPZ9NQss1UI/AAAAAAAACQo/T_ITXNOKLLwemcuvciT3F1xsVmJshpwfwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale07.jpg" width="286" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_G_dICRRaiQ/WPZ9NcaRYII/AAAAAAAACQk/dkdZkrNZEKUAcJX6Bmgtydpqz8PGQR_hgCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale08.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_G_dICRRaiQ/WPZ9NcaRYII/AAAAAAAACQk/dkdZkrNZEKUAcJX6Bmgtydpqz8PGQR_hgCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BQueen%2527s%2Bwrath%2Blogo%2Bsymbol%2BThe%2Breef%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpinfor%2Bsale08.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own Queen's Wrath pin you can <strike>head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp; up. </strike>Get one through the link below.<br /><strike></strike><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" target="_top"><input name="cmd" type="hidden" value="_s-xclick" /><br /><input name="hosted_button_id" type="hidden" value="38RYRCVX2CDFS" /><br /><input alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" border="0" name="submit" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" type="image" /><br /><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" /></form><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus" target="_blank">Facebook page and give me a like. </a></div><br /><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/R3dXDlG4I98" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com1http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/destiny-project-queens-wrath-pin.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-86347441302113003342017-04-17T14:29:00.002-07:002017-04-17T14:30:26.535-07:00Project Destiny: Elemental swords - Infinite EdgeThese were a very interesting addition by Bungie. I already made a post about them when they were still rumor but not long after that post I got a commission to create one. The only way to get them in Destiny was to refer a friend. My chances of getting one were very slim seeing as how most of my friends were already playing or had no intention to play so when I received a request to make one I realized "hey maybe I'll get one after all"<br /><br />At the time of the commission there was not a 3D model to draw upon seeing as how the only look at it was the preview video for the bonuses for referring a friend. So I collected all the reference I could find at the time and started working on a 3D model of the sword. It didn't take all that long with this one given the details were pretty straight forward, the hardest part was getting the angles right and connecting things that, as usual, were not connected in the digital version.<br />Here is a picture of the finished 3D model.<br /><br />I proceeded to 3D Print the sword as usual from the pummel up, handle, then cross guard, then the bits attached to the cross guard that I started referring to at the swords roll cage. If you look at it, it does seem more like a roll cage than anything practical. I did not print the blade it's self given that there wasn't really much detail as far as the blade goes so I opted instead to build it from scratch in wood. Here are a few progress pictures.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BS_ElAd-J_E/WMGS3Qs6C4I/AAAAAAAABs8/206C6uaXB0I5KLSmHKnsDFycb-4-7i-pACK4B/s1600/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP26.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BS_ElAd-J_E/WMGS3Qs6C4I/AAAAAAAABs8/206C6uaXB0I5KLSmHKnsDFycb-4-7i-pACK4B/s320/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP26.jpg" width="180" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I2wwTXXYxv8/WMGS3syMvVI/AAAAAAAABtM/ziOIMrkKfx4eRODUPy5rU9VZQvyNWVTcQCK4B/s1600/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP28.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I2wwTXXYxv8/WMGS3syMvVI/AAAAAAAABtM/ziOIMrkKfx4eRODUPy5rU9VZQvyNWVTcQCK4B/s320/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP28.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VzcgPKcmQfs/WMGS3sGY4CI/AAAAAAAABtI/MrjX1raq8K0zRUmQW2McjrY0_WZmR9kgwCK4B/s1600/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP27.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VzcgPKcmQfs/WMGS3sGY4CI/AAAAAAAABtI/MrjX1raq8K0zRUmQW2McjrY0_WZmR9kgwCK4B/s320/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP27.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br />Once I got it to a finished state, I then started making mold of the individual parts. Thankfully all of my molds turned out pretty spot on. Then I ran into a whole new set of issues.<br /><br />A few of the parts are very 'thin' and after I had cast them found them to be very fragile in the grand scheme of things. So clearly the typical resin I use to cast my parts wasn't going to cut it. Luckily I had some higher tensile strength resin on hand, the type used to cast 'functioning' parts, basically if the piece has to move a lot or is under stress a lot. I had this on hand because I typically use this for pins, triggers, or swing arms in my guns. I tried it out and luckily it fit the bill perfectly.<br /><br />I had cast the blade prior to casting the rest of the parts to get a head start on the final challenge on this build. The commissioner wanted the blade to have the effect that the one in the game has, in other words, in this case, the drifting void wisps. I had tried about 4 different ideas on how I could manage this and still keep it from becoming to fragile and looking correct even if it was only on display.<br />I researched how other people had accomplished 'magical wisps' or 'flaming' props and had tried most of them. the unfortunate problem is they all had something that didn't quite work for my application. I finally started thinking about maybe doing it in a clear resin somehow and realized, every time I over poured a mold, I would peel off the extra that had spilled over and mostly cured and would most times twist and squish it into odd shapes just because I could.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5iwCeCfnPUg/WMGU_Gzp-TI/AAAAAAAABt4/TyScAABbUesxf6OVutCbkWFtnf3UXZpJACK4B/s1600/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP42.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5iwCeCfnPUg/WMGU_Gzp-TI/AAAAAAAABt4/TyScAABbUesxf6OVutCbkWFtnf3UXZpJACK4B/s320/Infinite%2BEdge%2BDestiny%2BTTK%2BExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP42.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />That was it! If I could do that with mistakes then chances are I could do that on intentionally. The main challenge was I only had the cure time to work with. I had to pour it, shape it, color it as I wanted and then get it on the sword blade to shape it before it fully cured. I did a test run and while I turned out way to dark it was a proof of concept, it was possible. So I gave it another go, this time it turned out much closer to what I was looking for. At this point I had a great starting point and with a little bit of touch up paint I got the effect I was looking for.<br /><br />Here is a few test runs of various methods I tried. The ones on the right are the first run at the clear resin test.<br /><a

Destiny: Vanguard PinsAs I was etching out the various faction pins I suddenly realized, I missed one of the most important 'factions' the Vanguard. I quickly solved this and added it to yet another addition to the 'filling up my etch board'. They are fairly simple but finding the proper 'orange' was a challenge they came out great.

When the announcements of Rise of Iron (RoI) came out and the reveal that you could get the 'new iron <span style="background-color: transparent;">Gjallarhorn</span>' I pre-ordered it as soon as I could. I was excited to get my new Gjallarhorn so the day it came out I ran through the entire expansion story line in about 4 hours. While I still hadn't gotten my new Gjallarhorn, I found something else that excited me. The prize you receive upon becoming a new Iron Lord.<br /><br />The Young Wolf's Howl, the Exotic sword you receive just caught my eye. The details on it were just awesome. So I put the controller down and went searching, I was looking for as much reference as I could I wanted to make it, I wanted to have my very own. While pictures at the time were scarce I did manage to collect enough to get started. I headed over to DestinySTL Generator and found out he didn't have it up just yet, that was fine this time around seeing as how I knew none of that detail would be in the model so I got to work.<br /><br />I had previously made the Iron Lords Badge so I already had the details on the blade just had to blow it up a bit and got that printing out on Jarvis. In the mean time I worked on the pummel, handle and cross guard. I got it all done surprisingly quick for the amount of detail packed in those few small pieces.<br /><br />I start those 3D printing with the intention to have it finished out and molded in time for the holiday season. But of course things never go as planned, especially as the holiday season starts rolling around. So even though I had the pieces printed out I just didn't have the time to get it finished up, so it got shuffled to the back burner.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-p9AA5luYHr8/WMk8aR5GAnI/AAAAAAAABxU/cPuYyAB_LKMnxypkbRzEJlR1NdteHVfDACK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP26.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-p9AA5luYHr8/WMk8aR5GAnI/AAAAAAAABxU/cPuYyAB_LKMnxypkbRzEJlR1NdteHVfDACK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP26.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />This is what sat on my work bench through the holiday rush, taunting me.<br /><br />I had several people inquire about commissions for this sword but none of them panned out so I just powered through the holiday rush. Sword after sword, pins, and guns flying out to get to people by X-mas. Even a huge commission piece (you'll see that one soon enough.) but still couldn't get the time to get some work done on the YWH.<br /><br />Finally the Holidays were over I enjoyed X-mas with the family and the slow times after the rush. I took a week or two to relax a bit with only some small orders here and there.<br /><br />Then there it was still staring me in the face and I decided, I was going to finish this thing regardless. So I started cleaning up my 3D bits and started getting them smoothed out. Then in the process I decided to start on the sword blade. Here are some progress pictures.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7VGmYGVUe54/WMlDqI9ikcI/AAAAAAAAByQ/UPjBKp1mDoMxZOzKUzHSmDanYxDsf8dPgCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP27.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7VGmYGVUe54/WMlDqI9ikcI/AAAAAAAAByQ/UPjBKp1mDoMxZOzKUzHSmDanYxDsf8dPgCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP27.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9hWSA2YoEZ0/WMlDp_hbI-I/AAAAAAAAByI/GcavdLdw4lY8Ik4Y6vSPHsirFTG8Vs1CgCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP28.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9hWSA2YoEZ0/WMlDp_hbI-I/AAAAAAAAByI/GcavdLdw4lY8Ik4Y6vSPHsirFTG8Vs1CgCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP28.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iwHRDOYVCiU/WMlDpkMY81I/AAAAAAAABxw/_t_AmLK966QuTmxuYJgdhBCpnxJ-3DVBgCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP29.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iwHRDOYVCiU/WMlDpkMY81I/AAAAAAAABxw/_t_AmLK966QuTmxuYJgdhBCpnxJ-3DVBgCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP29.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JIPU3maSNPY/WMlDpj69pJI/AAAAAAAABxs/BbBQR9C9eNccH4eWnO95Plv7GV75JFHswCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP30.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JIPU3maSNPY/WMlDpj69pJI/AAAAAAAABxs/BbBQR9C9eNccH4eWnO95Plv7GV75JFHswCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP30.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PCzoOt3rctg/WMlDpu-RsHI/AAAAAAAABx4/UCpSIoJkhf4jFwGU1YlrAI5LkVwfVyf8ACK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP31.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PCzoOt3rctg/WMlDpu-RsHI/AAAAAAAABx4/UCpSIoJkhf4jFwGU1YlrAI5LkVwfVyf8ACK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP31.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qM3UTswcP-U/WMlDp4I0CHI/AAAAAAAAByA/-vse6ZlQ4goITOqJVDZHMLurP6immfkMwCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP32.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qM3UTswcP-U/WMlDp4I0CHI/AAAAAAAAByA/-vse6ZlQ4goITOqJVDZHMLurP6immfkMwCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP32.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br />As you can see I was getting serious about getting this one done. Of course that spurred on getting a few other back burner projects done but you'll see those soon enough. I liked how things were looking but then I started noticing that the grooves on the Iron Lord symbol were a bit to deep and likely wouldn't survive to many pulls when it finally made it to mold so I filled those in a bit to make them a bit more shallow.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5t_En3r2qsw/WMlEbd4TAbI/AAAAAAAAByc/FdYgMDT5fMYqNdy6c4tHP2uL0gz0fp1CACK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP33.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5t_En3r2qsw/WMlEbd4TAbI/AAAAAAAAByc/FdYgMDT5fMYqNdy6c4tHP2uL0gz0fp1CACK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP33.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />The one on the right is the original the left is filled in a bit.

They were looking great. I had just finished the mother mold on the blade mold and decided why not cast it in brass as well considering by this time Bungie had released the Ornaments or the Young Wolf's Howl and I wanted to do those as well.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-o4ZG8JivA08/WMlGizf_R7I/AAAAAAAAB0A/cHU9dJ0phyg8EACDOaT_J3LbYW19lOCFgCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP54.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-o4ZG8JivA08/WMlGizf_R7I/AAAAAAAAB0A/cHU9dJ0phyg8EACDOaT_J3LbYW19lOCFgCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP54.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lK0uSSGh5qI/WMlGjLd7znI/AAAAAAAAB0I/Mm77EL69GIUACikvk1gi-P8-LzZwWwPpACK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP55.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lK0uSSGh5qI/WMlGjLd7znI/AAAAAAAAB0I/Mm77EL69GIUACikvk1gi-P8-LzZwWwPpACK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP55.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-puNf7zUcxnM/WMlGjIPHOYI/AAAAAAAAB0Q/5S5vu692dvIEI0ZCxDTwO35MJ1rqfmwJQCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP56.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-puNf7zUcxnM/WMlGjIPHOYI/AAAAAAAAB0Q/5S5vu692dvIEI0ZCxDTwO35MJ1rqfmwJQCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP56.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />Here is another example of the process I go through with a lot of my stuff. The first picture is polished up with very fine steel wool, the second one is polished up, and the last one is with aging.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PlVWDUI04mA/WMlG9oXOXfI/AAAAAAAAB0Y/hhmuqWusfDwssB2iDCBgkL_thU2kgBKfQCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP52.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PlVWDUI04mA/WMlG9oXOXfI/AAAAAAAAB0Y/hhmuqWusfDwssB2iDCBgkL_thU2kgBKfQCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP52.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r7NNLSq9w44/WMlG9y0FnsI/AAAAAAAAB0g/c_ynJ7G5904lqMVdgKfOdUXMmX9vxt9MgCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP53.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r7NNLSq9w44/WMlG9y0FnsI/AAAAAAAAB0g/c_ynJ7G5904lqMVdgKfOdUXMmX9vxt9MgCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP53.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />Again the difference aging can make, the first picture is without aging and it looks almost cartoon like. the second picture shows it with the aging and you can clearly see it makes it much more realistic.<br />Finally I had my first casting of the blade out and got to put it all together.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e1BKmAU1Fi4/WMlHgZbPYRI/AAAAAAAAB0o/CFzGh58Lpk8nOBadtPw4fuVr09dy5fDWQCK4B/s1600/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP50.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e1BKmAU1Fi4/WMlHgZbPYRI/AAAAAAAAB0o/CFzGh58Lpk8nOBadtPw4fuVr09dy5fDWQCK4B/s320/Young%2BWolf%2527s%2BHowl%2Bsword%2Bprop%2BDestiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bfull%2BSize%2BExotic%2BSword%2BpropWIP50.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />It was coming together beautifully.

I remember the research I put into the symbol that is on the side. The House of Devils symbol. I love the fact that the Fallen have separate houses that occupy different areas The House of Devils in old russia, House of Exile on the moon, Varkis of House of Judgment in the Reef, The House of Kings that contest the area on earth, The House of Winter on Venus, and probably the most well know House of Wolves that have had the most unstable stance lately.<br /><br />I wanted to do something to celebrate the diversity of the Fallen. I decided to make Fallen house pins. I really like the Fallen Houses symbols, I etched the symbols of the 'known' houses, at least the ones they have released symbols for, into my etch board again filling a bit more space. After a bit of finishing they went to mold.<br /><br />They are tiny, each only about the size of a dime but it makes them perfect. Being so small you could easily wear them as a tie tack to work or a lapel pin. I wanted each to be similar but accented but the houses color. For now, they are cold cast in silver (aluminum) and then the house symbol painted with the respective house color. I really love how these came out.<br />&nbsp;<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-q5f1lGC1lqk/WPFCLpl7nPI/AAAAAAAACN4/FPq8so1Fbv8FuPPlxT60ne19GTMTYPB6gCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-q5f1lGC1lqk/WPFCLpl7nPI/AAAAAAAACN4/FPq8so1Fbv8FuPPlxT60ne19GTMTYPB6gCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MEJ5MF6Z8DA/WPFCMNlUHOI/AAAAAAAACOI/N2uUtTig5Vw8zakpoFAkUIs6pcD7qyaWACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="204" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MEJ5MF6Z8DA/WPFCMNlUHOI/AAAAAAAACOI/N2uUtTig5Vw8zakpoFAkUIs6pcD7qyaWACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6O3vkuVVAcU/WPFCK1BowuI/AAAAAAAACNo/YT9YbQ3bG3o7xeQZThOE2pudViI_faWpACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="222" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6O3vkuVVAcU/WPFCK1BowuI/AAAAAAAACNo/YT9YbQ3bG3o7xeQZThOE2pudViI_faWpACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7YiyuLjwqXE/WPFCLMIbnAI/AAAAAAAACNw/Ka68eyuv6gIx2xc3GUa-Vl8a7EhjCFvXgCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale09.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7YiyuLjwqXE/WPFCLMIbnAI/AAAAAAAACNw/Ka68eyuv6gIx2xc3GUa-Vl8a7EhjCFvXgCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale09.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OhBz6BFNwiM/WPFCMBv0QgI/AAAAAAAACOE/zPtkMR1jGCE5HWK1Iz42rhHhcW1_ftxKACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="194" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OhBz6BFNwiM/WPFCMBv0QgI/AAAAAAAACOE/zPtkMR1jGCE5HWK1Iz42rhHhcW1_ftxKACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFallen%2BHouse%2Bof%2Bwolves%252C%2Bkings%252C%2Bwinter%252C%2Bdevils%252C%2Bjudgment%252C%2Bexiles%2BCold%2Bcast%2Bsilver%2Bpins%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br />Tell me what you think in the comments below.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own New Monarchy pin you can head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp; up.&nbsp;</div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/511114000/destiny-fallen-houses-lapeltie-pin?ref=shop_home_active_1" target="_blank">Here</a></h2><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus" target="_blank">Facebook page and give me a like. </a></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/Cdf-TVCLGnM" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com1http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-destiny-fallen-houses-pins.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-555213223810484072017-04-13T12:08:00.001-07:002017-04-14T14:58:22.896-07:00Project Destiny: Agents of the Nine PinBeing a fan of the mysterious stranger, Xur and his wonderful wears I figured why not make a little something to honor him. Now if your a fan of Destiny you know there is very little information about the mysterious Xur. Really about the most information we know is that he has some great connections for gear and that he is a member of the Agents of Nine.<br /><br />So what better way to represent Xur than a pin specifically featuring the Agent of the Nine symbol.<br /><br />So, as I was etching out the many other things I slipped in the Agents of Nine pins. I was very pleased with the results, got them polished up, and molded them. I think the results speak for themselves, have a look.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q99NmNwlXUM/WOUD3CEyZ-I/AAAAAAAACIU/pTVF9gCNMlwfur6FjQVLG4Ch_bND6ZeBACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="294" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q99NmNwlXUM/WOUD3CEyZ-I/AAAAAAAACIU/pTVF9gCNMlwfur6FjQVLG4Ch_bND6ZeBACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale03.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-H3zu91P9SSM/WOUD3D73m2I/AAAAAAAACIc/RyzWpABxNfoV5S9dM2UUvcDBFkISxPIGgCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="307" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-H3zu91P9SSM/WOUD3D73m2I/AAAAAAAACIc/RyzWpABxNfoV5S9dM2UUvcDBFkISxPIGgCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0Z2G-hZFvek/WOUD29LZ7kI/AAAAAAAACIM/h1x4YwsL2-QWwbDqJWbnEDlX_aTnKbgDwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0Z2G-hZFvek/WOUD29LZ7kI/AAAAAAAACIM/h1x4YwsL2-QWwbDqJWbnEDlX_aTnKbgDwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BXur%2BAgent%2Bof%2B9%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="311" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own New Monarchy pin you can head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp; up.&nbsp;</div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/509001108/destiny-agents-of-9-pin-and-lapel-or-tie?ref=shop_home_active_1" target="_blank">Here</a></h2><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus" target="_blank">Facebook page and give me a like. </a></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/4Qn2b5xVB2I" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com1http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-destiny-agents-of-nine-pin.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-34487767022039780882017-04-12T11:01:00.002-07:002017-04-13T10:15:51.303-07:00Project Mortal Instruments: Shadowhunter Ruin CoinsEvery once in a while, when I'm searching out reference for something I start to wander through the endless depths of the interwebs. With so many different 'sources' now cashing in on the 'if you like this you might like this' ideal it's hard not to get sidetracked and lost in things at least once in a while.<br /><br />Well that's where this originally started. I was looking up something completely different, runes or glyphs of some persuasion and I ran across this image.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nlHu1x4c4WI/WO4r8T8hxaI/AAAAAAAACLM/hugyEbtMS_IpVOfIhgJweMUs0MoX6XDjwCK4B/s1600/Runes%2B3.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="247" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nlHu1x4c4WI/WO4r8T8hxaI/AAAAAAAACLM/hugyEbtMS_IpVOfIhgJweMUs0MoX6XDjwCK4B/s320/Runes%2B3.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />At the time it was literally just a 'hey those look pretty cool' and I tucked them away into my 'ideas' folder. Once I had a little 'down time' I dug them back out and started doing a little more digging into them. Now don't get me wrong right off the bat they looked cool, once I scratched the surface I realized why I recognized them. Mortal Instruments, before it comes up, no I have not actually read the books, I have skimmed over one a bit a while back, but most of what I knew actually came from the movie they made back in 2013. As silly as it might sound I was mostly interested in that movie because of the clear sword he wielded. Come on, I'm a prop maker and it was a unique prop at the time. Anyhow I'm getting side tracked, I'll go into that in another post.<br /><br />So runes, the runes were an interesting way to give them 'powers'. I have always loved the idea that something so simple and a bit of belief behind it can grant you some 'power'. Think about it this way, there is a reason it's still to this day called a lucky rabbit foot or a good luck charm.<br /><br />I wanted to do something with this idea. I dug more and found out they had also made a TV series out of the books as well and it just so happened to be on Hulu. Great, that gave me a bit more to get the wheels turning. I watched a couple episodes and then I realized what I wanted to do. I wanted to go a little more classic with the idea of the runes. Items of power if you will, something you can carry in your pocket and pull out in that 'time of need'. I decided I wanted to do Rune coins.<br /><br />I started work on digital etching files I would need. I was etching a few other things at the time so I ran a few on a test run with the other stuff. Here's a picture of the test board.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XHdcxHnOZDk/WO5YU_UXAMI/AAAAAAAACLc/XSUuERWZGks6AoiHXKii_rY84UbLeEwhQCK4B/s1600/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale17.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XHdcxHnOZDk/WO5YU_UXAMI/AAAAAAAACLc/XSUuERWZGks6AoiHXKii_rY84UbLeEwhQCK4B/s320/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale17.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />Turns out somewhere along the line with that etch the machine had a hiccup and skewed a good portion of the board. completely ruining most of the etches on the second run. If you look closely you can see it clearest on the&nbsp; 'strength' coin second one in from the right on the very bottom.<br /><br />The second run I had run out of they board I was etching on so I tried a piece of thin pine sheeting I had sitting around. My thought was I was planning on molding these anyhow so the initial material didn't mater to much. I was very wrong this time around.<br />&nbsp;<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-d1OQl0fun-8/WO5YihceQBI/AAAAAAAACLk/GoVaDnvomVQrPyIefUqsAZ1bgwmHh4VnwCK4B/s1600/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale18.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="214" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-d1OQl0fun-8/WO5YihceQBI/AAAAAAAACLk/GoVaDnvomVQrPyIefUqsAZ1bgwmHh4VnwCK4B/s320/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale18.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />While initially the etch looked good once I pulled it out and started working on finishing it I found many problems. The first pretty straight forward it was to thick to make a typical coin out up. I sanded it down from the back but in doing so the board started warping. Next issue, I wanted these to have a raw metal cast look, something that the shadowhunter had a long tradition doing so they did it in the 'old way'. So once I had cleaned out the ash from the etch I got to find this.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5gaICqJLYRA/WO5Yp7tjBAI/AAAAAAAACL0/uonwcZCvUsgMK6vf4utqmpa18uBD8rdrwCK4B/s1600/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale19.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5gaICqJLYRA/WO5Yp7tjBAI/AAAAAAAACL0/uonwcZCvUsgMK6vf4utqmpa18uBD8rdrwCK4B/s320/Mortal%2BInstruments%2BShadowhunters%2Bjace%2Bclary%2Bangeliccold%2Bcast%2Brune%2Bcoinsfor%2Bsale19.jpg" width="280" /></a><br />Now for a wooden coin, sure looks great but the wood grain proved very difficult to get rid of and I had 25 to do. This wasn't going to work. The good that came of this is it made me over think how to prep a board before etching. Which actually worked out a new system for me to do it in and I have to say I am very happy with it. And so the third attempt actually turned out wonderfully.

I had already etched out the <a href="http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-destiny-elite-medals.html" target="_blank">Elite Medals</a> so I started thinking of the various other awesome designs and icons they brought into Destiny.<br /><br />Then the most obvious, that had some how eluded me, came to mind. The Factions. So the next few posts will be the various Faction pins. This one the one with arguably the best weapons, Dead Orbit.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bs7w4WlkJ8s/WOTyHGP0XtI/AAAAAAAACG8/ZF6iGygY4kUyMgM_UMRBJ2whZx_hUmedACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="314" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bs7w4WlkJ8s/WOTyHGP0XtI/AAAAAAAACG8/ZF6iGygY4kUyMgM_UMRBJ2whZx_hUmedACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZSfvwm2e7pY/WOTyHQzRVxI/AAAAAAAACHM/08AnlfO1Hpozkb0sW8nvwnYPLPBscJ-UACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="308" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZSfvwm2e7pY/WOTyHQzRVxI/AAAAAAAACHM/08AnlfO1Hpozkb0sW8nvwnYPLPBscJ-UACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale03.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SkE-T7-Xm0g/WOTyHeKLqlI/AAAAAAAACHE/t2AXYkB6gFc1flPsByeLtxS4sV6NGK2nACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="313" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SkE-T7-Xm0g/WOTyHeKLqlI/AAAAAAAACHE/t2AXYkB6gFc1flPsByeLtxS4sV6NGK2nACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pXwKx7FKCno/WOTyHtnW4rI/AAAAAAAACHU/-USisFm3o9IimQTMP84hCLdwbPNYMKF8ACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="288" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pXwKx7FKCno/WOTyHtnW4rI/AAAAAAAACHU/-USisFm3o9IimQTMP84hCLdwbPNYMKF8ACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BFactions%2Breputation%2BDead%2Borbit%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own Dead Orbit pin you can head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp; up.&nbsp;</div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/509004234/destiny-dead-orbit-pin-and-lapel-or-tie" target="_blank">Here</a></h2><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus" target="_blank">Facebook page and give me a like. </a></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/J_vBz4VIz7A" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com0http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-destiny-faction-pins-dead-orbit.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-73843195969872702092017-04-08T09:21:00.003-07:002017-04-08T09:21:33.010-07:00Project Destiny: The Last Word 2.0This is another remake and Part of a large commission order. (list and links at the end) This is another that I had made before as a scrap build, one off piece. I loved the look of it so much but in the end I did the best I could with the materials I was using. While the first one turned out pretty good I knew I could do better on such a detailed epic handcannon. So I tried my hand at this one again. I wanted this version to have cleaner details, a drop out reload, the cartridge, and something I could make a mold of so I could offer it up to my customers this time. I don't have a ton of progress pictures on this build but what here's what I do have.<br /><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zSZRvZv2Jn4/VsN3uge7cBI/AAAAAAAABQI/NS3hFt-tYvs/s320/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP01.jpg" width="320" />Master Prototype<br /><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gSogFIkRmzA/VsN3vN8t3hI/AAAAAAAABQg/ay4pSqBH9cY/s320/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP02.jpg" width="320" />First Castings<br />Paint before final aging. <br />&nbsp;<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wL1vQ__59xY/VsN3u9EF7GI/AAAAAAAABQU/g93k0B9AX9E/s1600/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wL1vQ__59xY/VsN3u9EF7GI/AAAAAAAABQU/g93k0B9AX9E/s320/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP03.jpg" width="180" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AwbLsEgly-s/VsN3vAD9aYI/AAAAAAAABQY/ef2Izgi3h6c/s1600/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AwbLsEgly-s/VsN3vAD9aYI/AAAAAAAABQY/ef2Izgi3h6c/s320/Destiny%2BExotic%2BHandcannon%2BThe%2BLast%2BWordYear%2B2%2BProp%2BReplica%2BWIP04.jpg" width="180" /></a><br /><br /><br />I like how this one turned out in the end I think I managed to do justice to the original game model.

After playing through Destiny even casually you start to forget the importance of The Darkness. The Darkness is the 'great enemy' it is the force the prevents your ghost from resurrecting you. It is the force that the Traveler sacrificed it's self to save us from.<br /><br />I thought I needed to represent it, to honor this great evil, the very evil that us as Guardians fight against every time we log in to Destiny. And so here it is The Darkness pin barely bigger than a dime.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kR1w9auNwWk/WOUGF5CCfuI/AAAAAAAACIo/2Mdp0_CdTYsDaAhoodI0UFHPlAuv-gNTwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="319" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kR1w9auNwWk/WOUGF5CCfuI/AAAAAAAACIo/2Mdp0_CdTYsDaAhoodI0UFHPlAuv-gNTwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tFh-ywMy-_U/WOUGGKtlLmI/AAAAAAAACI0/5QkndJeexxspYnJNI-7MmXx_suU47cBIwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="317" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tFh-ywMy-_U/WOUGGKtlLmI/AAAAAAAACI0/5QkndJeexxspYnJNI-7MmXx_suU47cBIwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JWPOGnhzyv0/WOUGFyfmy2I/AAAAAAAACIs/_eptCND1tyklhOtVscyE6wIMribcZ3w4ACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="284" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JWPOGnhzyv0/WOUGFyfmy2I/AAAAAAAACIs/_eptCND1tyklhOtVscyE6wIMribcZ3w4ACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BThe%2BDarkness%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own New Monarchy pin you can head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp; up.&nbsp;</div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/509009798/destiny-the-darkness-lapel-or-tie-pin" target="_blank">Here</a></h2><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus" target="_blank">Facebook page and give me a like. </a></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/atKdEew3450" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com1http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-destiny-darkness-pin.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-22342239046215101662017-04-06T15:23:00.001-07:002017-04-11T05:17:00.585-07:00Project Fullmetal Alchamist: Transmutation Circle coinsI have always been a fan of Fullmetal Alchemist. One thing that always caught my eye was the Transmutation circles. When digging into them I discovered they are actually loosely based on actual alchemy which just peeked my interest even more.<br /><br />It had been lurking in the back of my head for a while I wanted to something from the series, then it kind of culminated when I started using my laser etcher. I would transfer the transmutation circles something you could carry, just a little trinket you could carry in a pocket, a coin.<br /><br />The first attempt did not turn out to great. I ran the etch but then realized it was deep enough for my liking so I ran it again. Well somewhere in that process something got fudged and I ended up with a double image instead of a deeper etch. so that entire board was ruined and I had to toss it. Sometimes when it's a 'pet project' set backs like that will cause it to be shifted to a back burner or even tossed out for simple frustration. This time however I was determined to make it work, and seeing as how I had some down time from orders it wasn't a stretch to make it happen.<br /><br />So the second attempt turned out much better and after a little polishing it up I got it to mold. I have to say the cold cast silver coins turned out pretty amazing and now I'd like to share those with you.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WjUIPVvJpos/WOa_UJJv9UI/AAAAAAAACJ4/tFNlfimvLNc7hjxgYHG2GegowWlORXM2wCK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="312" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WjUIPVvJpos/WOa_UJJv9UI/AAAAAAAACJ4/tFNlfimvLNc7hjxgYHG2GegowWlORXM2wCK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-O9etU67_4rs/WOa_UEgtmCI/AAAAAAAACJ0/JE5e9jR7t44sBw3zaLTJ0kJ94zgQ_ZMZgCK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="272" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-O9etU67_4rs/WOa_UEgtmCI/AAAAAAAACJ0/JE5e9jR7t44sBw3zaLTJ0kJ94zgQ_ZMZgCK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale04.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LoKxtDqQbFA/WOa_O4HDjhI/AAAAAAAACJQ/S5dxO1QVqmU4pWHjl7SbzpXSWMpTjqnLwCK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="308" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LoKxtDqQbFA/WOa_O4HDjhI/AAAAAAAACJQ/S5dxO1QVqmU4pWHjl7SbzpXSWMpTjqnLwCK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4WulTcSF9sQ/WOa_UF6Be_I/AAAAAAAACKA/ZbZKvYDnNlw6G-CFRE884f8r1EI0U6-0ACK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="287" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4WulTcSF9sQ/WOa_UF6Be_I/AAAAAAAACKA/ZbZKvYDnNlw6G-CFRE884f8r1EI0U6-0ACK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0i5WGMBUzo/WOa_T562-ZI/AAAAAAAACJg/0HONqFg1rEU0scTET_fsy3e1n-TPDFGCgCK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale07.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="282" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0i5WGMBUzo/WOa_T562-ZI/AAAAAAAACJg/0HONqFg1rEU0scTET_fsy3e1n-TPDFGCgCK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale07.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suSWp-KVIRY/WOa_T31yjOI/AAAAAAAACJc/36V4SK7_azsKjYkhuDtAdsNw0WDvsYiEACK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale08.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suSWp-KVIRY/WOa_T31yjOI/AAAAAAAACJc/36V4SK7_azsKjYkhuDtAdsNw0WDvsYiEACK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale08.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YSqnplujmZA/WOa_T6uM6FI/AAAAAAAACJo/A-1DIOkZ9Eg6ZDwSRSsaDqMl5TZM6U9NQCK4B/s1600/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale10.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="268" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YSqnplujmZA/WOa_T6uM6FI/AAAAAAAACJo/A-1DIOkZ9Eg6ZDwSRSsaDqMl5TZM6U9NQCK4B/s320/Fullmetal%2BAlchemist%2BFMA%2Bbrotherhood%2Beldrich%2Bbrothers%2Btransmutation%2Bcircle%2Bcold%2Bcast%2Bmetal%2Bcoin%2Bfor%2Bsale10.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to have your very own New Monarchy pin you can head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy Store</a> and pick one&nbsp;

It had an awesome look to it and immediately got my brain going on how I could make it. This was the picture.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-O0pzQm2KUUU/WMlamfSQq2I/AAAAAAAAB44/IkhOJ-zibi0A1R7LRwsuLA-lEQ6LqAYHgCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bpromotion.jpeg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-O0pzQm2KUUU/WMlamfSQq2I/AAAAAAAAB44/IkhOJ-zibi0A1R7LRwsuLA-lEQ6LqAYHgCK4B/s640/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2Bpromotion.jpeg" width="640" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />I jumped on the interwebs and started searching for anything I could find which at the time wasn't much. But really all I needed was the image above. I went to work cleaning up the picture best I could so I could capture as much of the detail of it as possible.<br /><br />Once I had the clean image I made myself a vector image of the logo and imported it in to my 3D software and got to work making it a 3D object. It didn't take to long to get it sized right and then I sent it over to Jarvis to 3D print it for me while I was working on other stuff. The first one didn't turn out very well then the second was a little to deep, so I ended up printing out 3 versions to finally decide which I wanted to continue with.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jLSgG4JwbqE/WMlbxu90PhI/AAAAAAAAB5E/CaiVJ4iEnZQwtNp9lR7miOuNCxxs7YaEQCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jLSgG4JwbqE/WMlbxu90PhI/AAAAAAAAB5E/CaiVJ4iEnZQwtNp9lR7miOuNCxxs7YaEQCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="180" />&nbsp;</a><br />&nbsp; I cleaned it up to something I was happy to mold and right after I popped the original out I powdered the mold to cold cast.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uHtJCCLAgCo/WMlcKgRl_qI/AAAAAAAAB5M/Dd4zf7zIu340BcjJniD64Fr1PwcHlRF2QCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uHtJCCLAgCo/WMlcKgRl_qI/AAAAAAAAB5M/Dd4zf7zIu340BcjJniD64Fr1PwcHlRF2QCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale03.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />Here's that casting fresh out of the mold<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HXkODX-g404/WMlcVwREfGI/AAAAAAAAB5c/u0lXTzSZuWsUTWzWjl3eL3xYZYZ0dx7ogCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale04.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HXkODX-g404/WMlcVwREfGI/AAAAAAAAB5c/u0lXTzSZuWsUTWzWjl3eL3xYZYZ0dx7ogCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale04.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br />You can see in the picture that in some of the small lines that it actually had already damaged the mold on the very first casting. I ended up taking the original and filling in some of the deeper crevasses to make them more shallow so I wouldn't be tearing up the mold every time I cast one. I poured a new mold and while I waited for it to cure I decided I might as well shine up what I already had so that I could get and idea of what they would end up looking like. I gotta say I liked what I had so far.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5x0cHLG4v2s/WMldcy-96cI/AAAAAAAAB5o/7epwrjXzxK0bv8nGt4MH90aJxcz3qC_GwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5x0cHLG4v2s/WMldcy-96cI/AAAAAAAAB5o/7epwrjXzxK0bv8nGt4MH90aJxcz3qC_GwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BRise%2Bof%2BIron%2BRoI%2BIron%2BLords%2BBadge%2BCold%2BCast%2Bprop%2BFor%2Bsale05.jpg" width="180" /></a><br />So once the new mold was set I decided to cold cast in pretty much every metal I could.

I had taken a mold of the Jade Rabbit emblem that's on the side of the gun. I had originally just made it so that I could have 2 identical emblems to put on the gun. After the holiday rush had settled down me and a few friends thought why not use the mold and make a few more.<br /><br />Well, it ended up getting a little out of hand.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BjfZrjib27M/WMmLfTKhzeI/AAAAAAAAB_s/dzAxyUPtzskn3ssYtybuO2BzdgoBHMwxACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BJade%2BRabbit%2BEmblem%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale17.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BjfZrjib27M/WMmLfTKhzeI/AAAAAAAAB_s/dzAxyUPtzskn3ssYtybuO2BzdgoBHMwxACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BJade%2BRabbit%2BEmblem%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale17.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br />As you can see in trying to embed magnets in them a few turned out a little less than perfect and yes the one on the lower right glows in the dark. I had a bit extra glowy resin when I was casting some strange coins so it got dumped into the rabbit.<br /><br />Well here we are almost a year and a half later and as I was looking around the shop collecting the various projects that had fallen to the way side. There they were still hanging on my freezer. I had originally intended to put them up for sale but somehow that thought got lost. Well I dug out the old mold dusted it off cleaned it out and decided to cast a few more.

I had already done the work on the <a href="http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/03/project-destiny-age-of-triumph-and.html" target="_blank">Age of Triumph and the record book coins/medallions.</a> But then I realized I wanted to fill up my board I was etching to maximize the space I had available.<br /><br />I started thinking of the various things I hadn't seen. I realized there is a lot of things I could do. I had always loved the designs on the various Detinsy medals, they had a very military feel to them but the art work on them was great. I wanted to add a little bit more to my 'look at what we have accomplished' especially with the announcement of Destiny 2.<br /><br />I started looking over the various medals and with over a hundred to choose from I had to narrow it down. So I decided what better place to start than at the top. I collected the various art work from the top tier yellow/gold medals they have. The hardest ones to get. I thought why not give all those top tier guardians a way to show off what they have accomplished even outside of the Destiny universe.<br /><br />After the Etching was done and the medals were cleaned up I molded them. I intended to cold cast them in brass as I thought it gave them a very beautiful metal finish for these awesome little pins.<br /><br />After I cast them I gave them a quick aging to make the brass stand out more in contrast. I think the results were outstanding. Don't take my word for it judge for yourself.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dR_TK_pUwYE/WOJZZtZaOYI/AAAAAAAACGE/rO9xZMVacCAvRp5I60bzWraEADyxN26-gCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale07.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="556" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dR_TK_pUwYE/WOJZZtZaOYI/AAAAAAAACGE/rO9xZMVacCAvRp5I60bzWraEADyxN26-gCK4B/s640/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale07.jpg" width="640" />&nbsp;</a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eNSo0puv9Lg/WOJZnWrctoI/AAAAAAAACGU/MRNXOHJ5iVAZUew9koveuvc-0eUS5d15gCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="232" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eNSo0puv9Lg/WOJZnWrctoI/AAAAAAAACGU/MRNXOHJ5iVAZUew9koveuvc-0eUS5d15gCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale06.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OvCMWGi4gks/WOJZnYNaalI/AAAAAAAACGM/ysQoKI4NC4Mcx9uixx_QC8CZwDJsYeKnACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale10.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="289" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OvCMWGi4gks/WOJZnYNaalI/AAAAAAAACGM/ysQoKI4NC4Mcx9uixx_QC8CZwDJsYeKnACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale10.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-V9VPJvNfGJY/WOJZn2ZQUNI/AAAAAAAACGk/2ZRXBY-qmH4vQlQs6wMPzb5Zm3UmTtcNACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale12.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="264" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-V9VPJvNfGJY/WOJZn2ZQUNI/AAAAAAAACGk/2ZRXBY-qmH4vQlQs6wMPzb5Zm3UmTtcNACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale12.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Y38Btf7JYoc/WOJZnsoDPsI/AAAAAAAACGc/3VE76CbbEMA0yCILAP1XY4eJy_B-x5SFwCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale08.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="229" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Y38Btf7JYoc/WOJZnsoDPsI/AAAAAAAACGc/3VE76CbbEMA0yCILAP1XY4eJy_B-x5SFwCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BStrike%2Bcrucible%2Bgold%2Byellow%2BMedals%2Bpin%2Bfor%2Bsale08.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /><br />I wanted them to be small but big enough to see the details of each, so they are about the size of a quarter.

Sure why not overload on the saw dust from all the sanding. Besides it was a simple enough blade frankly I'm not entirely sure why I didn't just take an afternoon to get it done.<br /><br />Like the Dark Drinker I decided immediately to just trash the old blade and start fresh. This one was frankly a cake walk compared to the other two I was working on it was a very simple design and only some tiny details so I cut it out and got to work.<br /><br />Frankly this one went so quick I didn't manage to take a single photo of the process so let's not waste anymore time and just share with you the final product.<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rNwoYnfrooA/WMlU5b31MiI/AAAAAAAAB4U/Qw2ekeE95ssIHr00BNKFpeILLIJcPPG3QCK4B/s1600/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale08.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="418" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rNwoYnfrooA/WMlU5b31MiI/AAAAAAAAB4U/Qw2ekeE95ssIHr00BNKFpeILLIJcPPG3QCK4B/s640/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale08.jpg" width="640" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-su1hW47RIL4/WMlU5H3OtXI/AAAAAAAAB4E/UqwN7vIUpCkNmptG1O2kiBIoYUlCVqAVACK4B/s1600/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale09.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="101" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-su1hW47RIL4/WMlU5H3OtXI/AAAAAAAAB4E/UqwN7vIUpCkNmptG1O2kiBIoYUlCVqAVACK4B/s320/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale09.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-x--4z-8T2Xk/WMlU5SltHjI/AAAAAAAAB4M/683XpnInFpEEjYMG-Nsy4IJ5A8XU7-hJQCK4B/s1600/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale10.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="189" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-x--4z-8T2Xk/WMlU5SltHjI/AAAAAAAAB4M/683XpnInFpEEjYMG-Nsy4IJ5A8XU7-hJQCK4B/s320/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale10.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-X2DQdDTHPEM/WMlU5ttKpDI/AAAAAAAAB4c/uJZ6UCUtMYktld4L6BHlajWjuFNSVpRJQCK4B/s1600/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale12.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="257" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-X2DQdDTHPEM/WMlU5ttKpDI/AAAAAAAAB4c/uJZ6UCUtMYktld4L6BHlajWjuFNSVpRJQCK4B/s320/Void%2BEdge%2BProp%2BDestiny%2BTKK%2BExotic%2BSwordfor%2Bsale12.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />The real beauty about this one is I can offer you all the Void Edge, Sol Edge, and the Arc Edge depending on your preference all it takes is a different crystal.

She wanted the visitor 'patch' in pin form. I remember watching the show back then with my mom, I hadn't even thought about it in ages but when she asked I knew exactly what she was talking about.<br /><br />&nbsp;I went dug up some old stills from the show to make sure I had the design correct then confirmed it with her and got to work on the 3D file for it. I printed it out on Jarvis and got to smoothing it. With so much flat surface you'd think it would be simple but getting up next to the edges of the symbol proved to be a bit more tricky.<br /><br />Eventually I had it smoothed to where I was happy and I boxed it up along with a bunch of other small items I had to mold and poured. Finally here is the picture of all those small molds I was pouring as I have mentioned them in previous posts.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VCiBTR_TvQc/WMl5ZVso-cI/AAAAAAAAB8w/FC-963NKNAIqeeUhZ9OWO6ZePIEzUDPrgCK4B/s1600/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VCiBTR_TvQc/WMl5ZVso-cI/AAAAAAAAB8w/FC-963NKNAIqeeUhZ9OWO6ZePIEzUDPrgCK4B/s320/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="320" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />Once the mold had set up I went ahead and just like the other piece poured two different versions of the pin so here are all the pieces I made for her just before I went to give them to her.<br />&nbsp;<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-m1nA0g3XvvY/WMl59DXOL5I/AAAAAAAAB88/cc1Q_QLSmXwfR3NTYcDZjolURejdoTNAQCK4B/s1600/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-m1nA0g3XvvY/WMl59DXOL5I/AAAAAAAAB88/cc1Q_QLSmXwfR3NTYcDZjolURejdoTNAQCK4B/s640/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale03.jpg" width="640" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />Let me know what you think of them in the comments below.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">If you'd like to get your hands on your very own Visitor Pin from the 1983 V Series head over to my <a href="http://professorcatpardus.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy store</a> and pick yourself up one.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/504898586/a-visitor-badge-from-the-1983-v-tv-show" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Here&nbsp;</span></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to keep more up to date on my various projects head over to my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ProfessorCaTPardus/" target="_blank">Facebook page</a> and give me a like. </div><br /><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheWonderfulCreationsOfProfessorCatPardus/~4/uXilm3RGm6s" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Professor CaT Pardushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10738199027373698626noreply@blogger.com0http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2017/04/project-commission-from-friend-v-pin.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3716973795340713990.post-66972323727209455102017-03-31T18:33:00.002-07:002017-03-31T18:33:39.431-07:00Project Destiny: Byronic Hero Hand CannonBack in July of 2016 I had one of the most awesome custom requests I have had. Not necessarily because of what was being requested but because of how he requested it. In the initial request he gave me an exact description of what he was looking for with several reference images attached. Shortly there after he sent me another email with several more high res images of the gun.<br /><br />This was a dream, to have someone do my typical first steps in any commission before I had even responded was awesome. On top of that he was incredibly respectful that this is what I do for a living as an artist and frankly a pleasure to talk with.<br /><br />So after we talked shop and ironed out the details I got to work on it. It was great since I already had some great reference to work with I started the digital work on it the same day he sent payment.<br /><br />I grabbed the base model from the wonderful DestinySTLGenerator and then proceeded to hack it apart into the separate pieces. I knew I was going to have to plan this out far ahead of time, not because of the fine details, but more because of the negative space in the gun. That's the one thing that made this one particularly interesting.<br /><br />I got the digital work done in about a week with most everything planned out before I started 3D printing the parts. Once I had the part I printed out a handle (yeah being smart this time) and quickly realized it was way to big. So I scaled everything down a bit to where it was comfortable and got all the pieces printed out. Here's a few shots of the raw prints.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d-kmTm5IxOs/WMmRXpTVcoI/AAAAAAAACAs/3v8qMBvd6Kci70w6yVmE1lnFUhWIsdMvQCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BTTK%2BLegendary%2BHand%2BCannon%2BProp%2BGun%2BByronic%2BHero%2BWIP01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d-kmTm5IxOs/WMmRXpTVcoI/AAAAAAAACAs/3v8qMBvd6Kci70w6yVmE1lnFUhWIsdMvQCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BTTK%2BLegendary%2BHand%2BCannon%2BProp%2BGun%2BByronic%2BHero%2BWIP01.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xAN2xE0x1SA/WMmRX6pJ-0I/AAAAAAAACA0/71iiXQvE-5AhWchlm70Y1cYuqGpQJknHgCK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BTTK%2BLegendary%2BHand%2BCannon%2BProp%2BGun%2BByronic%2BHero%2BWIP02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xAN2xE0x1SA/WMmRX6pJ-0I/AAAAAAAACA0/71iiXQvE-5AhWchlm70Y1cYuqGpQJknHgCK4B/s320/Destiny%2BTTK%2BLegendary%2BHand%2BCannon%2BProp%2BGun%2BByronic%2BHero%2BWIP02.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />Once I had everything fitting nicely I started the long annoying smoothing process to get the parts nice and finished before I would mold them.

The problem I ran into is i could not get the 3D printer to print fine enough to get the words around the edge legible without making the pin an obnoxious size. We're talking those big pins that were popular in the 90's so that one got put on the back burner.<br /><br />Then about a month ago I had a 'just cut the head off the nail' moment.<br />Actually let me explain that reference. Once upon a time about 4 years ago I was making some throwing spikes out of 6 inch nails. I didn't want to have the head of the nail to interfere with throwing so I was shaving the edges off of the head with a grinder and then grinding it down to smooth. Basically taking forever to try and get a nice finish on the back of the nail. Then a very good friend of mine watched me doing this and when I was done put his hand on my shoulder and said in his most sincere voice.<br />"Cat, you know I love you, but why don't you just cut the head off the nail."<br />I literally had a face palm moment. I realized that I had way over thought the process and in doing so I had missed the easy solution. This same friend hangs out with me every week most of the time in my shop and I pass my thoughts by him all the time to try to make sure I'm not over thinking things, as I have a habit of doing.<br /><br />Anyhow, I had one of those moments and realized I have a laser etcher. This entire time I could have simply etched the design into something rather than printing it raised. So I fired up my laser and got the design etched into some would. In both pin size and lapel pin size.<br /><br />Unfortunately in my excitement to get it to mold I didn't think to get any pictures along the way. However I did get a few pictures of the glow enamel tests.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FfctlpjgTbA/WMlsYi8qsjI/AAAAAAAAB7o/G4F5Sx12cTMwSRoJ9gPKsTwEslcaxzCVQCK4B/s1600/IMG_20170220_183720351.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M8qFeI7wyrA/WMlsYgEBuyI/AAAAAAAAB7k/kK3Za4GrszgJWg8QiYe-v4qnnSa_NXCHwCK4B/s320/IMG_20170220_184131.jpg" width="266" /></a><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FfctlpjgTbA/WMlsYi8qsjI/AAAAAAAAB7o/G4F5Sx12cTMwSRoJ9gPKsTwEslcaxzCVQCK4B/s320/IMG_20170220_183720351.jpg" width="315" /><br /><br />Once I got the enamel working mostly how I had wanted it to I decided to do 2 versions a silver and a white version of the pins.

A friend of mine actually shot me a message asking if it was possible for me do make some pins for her. She had two specifically in mind that she was hoping to get before heading to DragonCon.<br /><br />The first one I want to share was from Dune. Now personally I grew up on Dune my mom was a huge fan of the book series and I'm pretty sure to this day has every book that's been published. I remember watching the original movie and then the extended 3 hour version. We even have a copy of the SyFy mini series. So needless to say I knew exactly what she meant when she asked if I could make her a Spacing Guild pin.<br /><br />After sorting out exactly which Spacing Guild logo she was looking for I got to work making a 3D model it was a pretty quick process seeing as how the symbol was pretty simple, then sent it over to Jarvis to 3D print it up for me.<br /><br />The smoothing ended up a little tricky but didn't take to long. Then I got it boxed up and poured the mold. I was working on quite a few things at the time so didn't get any pictures of the process but here are the results of the first casts.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cKgm4qKVxKk/WMl22O_ksCI/AAAAAAAAB8k/ikdR_4UU6sctBhkaqzEijl-ePikvxGD6gCK4B/s1600/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale02.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cKgm4qKVxKk/WMl22O_ksCI/AAAAAAAAB8k/ikdR_4UU6sctBhkaqzEijl-ePikvxGD6gCK4B/s640/Dune%2BSpacing%2BGuildV%2Btv%2Bshow%2BBadge%2BPinFor%2Bsale02.jpg" width="640" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />&nbsp;All in all a small side project but it had some awesome results.

It's the one game I have played the longest in a long run of video games. Now don't get me wrong it does have it's issues, one of my biggest complaints is the lack of new content, which after the luster of the last DLC wears off it just becomes a grind again.<br />&nbsp;I have pre-ordered almost all of the expansions as soon as I heard about them (only missed out on the dark below) I do my best to keep up with the news about upcoming destiny events and such. When I heard that this Age of Triumph record book event would be the last 'new content' I have to admit I had many mixed emotions about it. One part of me is bummed that the game I have loved will no longer have anything new to do, however another part of me is excited that they are focusing there energies on Destiny 2. I am hoping that they will give us a little more than the grind for better gear.<br /><br />I do love that they are giving us a final celebration of all of our accomplishments over the years, even offering the 'you did it' T-shirt if you reach rank 7. As I was watching the live stream announcements of what this update will bring I saw something in there opening that made me have a 'I want to make that' moment. I wanted to celebrate the event. Share something with all the guardians out there that have trudged through the hive, broken the cabal lines, fought off the waves of vex, Gunned down so many fallen, and decimated the taken. I wanted to add my own small token to the memory of the years since we heard "eyes up guardian" from that wonderful little dinklbot.<br /><br />I saw the crest that they are using for the Age of Triumph and thought to my self 'I want to make something with that.'<br /><br />I sat down and searched out the crest, and finally found one that was high enough quality to do what I wanted to do with. Then I thought of the other record books and decided I would expand on the initial idea. I got to work on digital work and once I was happy with the results I sent it over to Jarvis 2.0 and started on the laser etches.<br /><br />Once the 'smoke' had cleared here's the results.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pOx4u9s8zUI/WNln1PSUH0I/AAAAAAAACEA/zrhE3IOojwY1BJi711rYl-RKskYEjLrbACK4B/s1600/Destiny%2BAge%2Bof%2BTriumph%2BRecord%2Bbook%2BCrest%2Bcoin%2Bmedal%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="216" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pOx4u9s8zUI/WNln1PSUH0I/AAAAAAAACEA/zrhE3IOojwY1BJi711rYl-RKskYEjLrbACK4B/s320/Destiny%2BAge%2Bof%2BTriumph%2BRecord%2Bbook%2BCrest%2Bcoin%2Bmedal%2Bfor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />I took these raw etches and finished them up a little more.

Destiny: The Dark DrinkerBack when The Taken King came out Bungie introduced the first of the heavy weapons swords into the game. Being that I had made the <a href="http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2014/10/project-destiny-sword-of-crota_26.html" target="_blank">Sword of Crota</a> already I felt it my duty to continue making the swords of Destiny.<br /><br />I had originally had the intention to make all of the various swords the had introduced all at the same time. However as usual plans did not go the way I had intended and I just couldn't manage to find the time, or funds, to take on all of them at once. I had started them and got the blades originally made in foam but I wasn't entirely happy with how they came out.<br /><br />Then I got a commission for the <a href="http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2016/03/project-destiny-raze-lighter-tkk-exotic.html" target="_blank">Raze Lighter</a>, I was very excited as it gave me the funds to get it finished. While that gave me the handle, cross guard and crystal all already molded the rest of the swords still remained on the back burner.<br /><br />I had many people inquire about if I would make them the Dark Drinker after they saw my <a href="http://www.professorcatpardus.com/2016/03/project-destiny-raze-lighter-tkk-exotic.html" target="_blank">Raze Lighter</a>, however unfortunately they all fell through for one reason or another. I still wanted to make it but I had so many other projects in the works it just wasn't on the table.<br /><br />Then during my slow time I started work on the Young Wolf's Howl. Well this got me thinking about my various sword again. I decided to dust off my old unfinished projects and get them finished. I wanted to have a finished product instead of the old dusty foam blades that had been hanging in my shop for over a year.<br /><br />I pulled down the Dark Drinker blade, dust it off, and immediately decided while it was a good start I wanted to start fresh. I wanted to be proud of it when it was done and the old foam blade just wasn't quite up to par. Seeing as how I had the wood left over from making the Young Wolf's Howl blade I decided I'd make it again, better, stronger... ok so yeah I cut it out of the wood.<br />I don't have a ton of progress pictures per say but I did take video of almost the entire process, so if i get around to doing so video editing there will be a link to that.<br /><br />Here are a few shots in the shop as I was getting the paint on it.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DnMzjVs65Jg/WMlRln4uh0I/AAAAAAAAB3Q/QvvZs1gFAW4ixj11DB22b7I5HJlI0uExwCK4B/s1600/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP05.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DnMzjVs65Jg/WMlRln4uh0I/AAAAAAAAB3Q/QvvZs1gFAW4ixj11DB22b7I5HJlI0uExwCK4B/s320/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP05.jpg" width="180" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lPlDZ66cc3E/WMlRlQiUDdI/AAAAAAAAB3A/pHIxlEeutn82dveBwt6UmWAgQIrxqG45gCK4B/s1600/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP07.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lPlDZ66cc3E/WMlRlQiUDdI/AAAAAAAAB3A/pHIxlEeutn82dveBwt6UmWAgQIrxqG45gCK4B/s320/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP07.jpg" width="180" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zp626HT8ruU/WMlRlVXcfqI/AAAAAAAAB3I/67ZchN2iQ2wMDwwOgB1EbWU5glohOESEgCK4B/s1600/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP06.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zp626HT8ruU/WMlRlVXcfqI/AAAAAAAAB3I/67ZchN2iQ2wMDwwOgB1EbWU5glohOESEgCK4B/s320/Dark%2BDrinker%2BPropDestiny%2BTTKExotic%2BSword%2Bfull%2BSize%2BWIP06.jpg" width="180" />&nbsp;</a><br /><br />And here are the 'glamour shots' of this massive beauty.

It rivals my Sword of Crota in size but has it's own beauty.

I managed to design, 3D model and print this Individual 11 pin while finishing out the Section 9 badge.<br /><br />Once I had it printed I started to work on finishing it along side the badge.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bTesiAVG9ao/WMliL8pFZRI/AAAAAAAAB6s/pViyjUpYaksGKYaI0awfk5Lc2R_cxDflgCK4B/s1600/Ghost%2Bin%2Bthe%2BShell%2BGitS%2BSection%2B9%2Blogo%2Bbadge%2BIndividual%2B11%2Bpin%2BFor%2Bsale01.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bTesiAVG9ao/WMliL8pFZRI/AAAAAAAAB6s/pViyjUpYaksGKYaI0awfk5Lc2R_cxDflgCK4B/s320/Ghost%2Bin%2Bthe%2BShell%2BGitS%2BSection%2B9%2Blogo%2Bbadge%2BIndividual%2B11%2Bpin%2BFor%2Bsale01.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />I got it boxed up and poured the mold along side a bunch of others.<br /><br />Once the mold had cured I quickly cast a few samples of what I had intended it to look like and I have to say I was very happy with the results even before I polished them up.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IDuDJGcaSyI/WMljfNN1yEI/AAAAAAAAB64/sGmvQSiTRTsrYXNlwwh4VXwMxFlmEiRoQCK4B/s1600/Ghost%2Bin%2Bthe%2BShell%2BGitS%2BSection%2B9%2Blogo%2Bbadge%2BIndividual%2B11%2Bpin%2BFor%2Bsale03.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IDuDJGcaSyI/WMljfNN1yEI/AAAAAAAAB64/sGmvQSiTRTsrYXNlwwh4VXwMxFlmEiRoQCK4B/s320/Ghost%2Bin%2Bthe%2BShell%2BGitS%2BSection%2B9%2Blogo%2Bbadge%2BIndividual%2B11%2Bpin%2BFor%2Bsale03.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />Then I polished them up and took some good pictures.
